Police Telephone Box

Based on a design of call box introduced from the 1920s, in real life they contained a phone for use by the public in an emergency, and police officers could use them as miniature police stations, with facilities inside for compiling reports, taking lunch breaks and even temporarily holding suspects until assistance arrived!

This is a nice and simple kit to assemble, moulded in appropriately-coloured dark blue, and supplied with waterslide decals to complete the details.

Platform Accessories Modern Era

This new kit brings the range of platform accessories into contemporary times. A ticket kiosk, information and timetable boards, a ticket machine, ticket barriers, and CRT screens are all represented in this comprehensive kit. Moulded in red plastic, the models are easy to assemble, and painting would be necessary to bring out the detail. Suitable for all regions in the UK, the models nevertheless recall memories of "Network South East" of the 1980s!

Leyland Olympian Double Decker Bus, Blackpool Corporation

The Leyland Olympian entered service with the National Bus Company (N.B.C.) in 1981, as a replacement for the Bristol VRT. Shortly after this, Olympians entered service with many provincial operators. London Transport ordered its' first batch in 1984.

Initial batches of the Olympian featured a Leyland chassis, powered by a Gardner 6 LXB engine with an Eastern Carriage Works (E.C.W.) body. Later batches used a Leyland built body and those produced more recently had an Optare built body. Outwardly these three bodies are basically identical and this kit is based on this type of Olympian.

They were exported to Greece, Hong Kong, the USA, Canada and Singapore. Kit contains pre-coloured parts and transfers; requires glue and detail painting to complete.

Leyland National Single Decker Bus, Green Vari-kit

The Leyland National bus was built in Workington, Cumbria, between 1972 and 1985, this project being a collaboration between British Leyland and the National Bus Company. It was a successful venture, with thousands built, and also exported to many countries around the world, including Australia, the Netherlands, Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, and the largest export shipment, 450 buses to Venezuela! Very few remain in service in the UK, but over 100 are preserved. Another interesting fact, and a railway one, is that the bus body design, and components, were adapted to be used in the British Rail Class 141, 142 and 155 diesel multiple units. Kit contains pre-coloured parts and transfers; requires glue and detail painting to complete.

Bullhead OO Gauge Buffer Stop - Rail built

Most buffer stops of the period prior to the 1970s were constructed from spare bullhead rail and these new mouldings contain plenty of detail such as bolt heads and the bullhead profile of the rail. The design has also accounted for the option of an alternative buffer for EM gauge.

There are enough parts in the kit for two buffer stops. Designed to clip onto the bullhead rail profile, this easy-to-assemble kit will be simplicity itself to install.
